Roll Your Carpool into 10K Cash with Startup 275
Thanks to FDOT and TBARTA teaming up to launch Startup 275, your carpool can do more than save you money, it could earn you big bucks! A creative campaign targeting would-be entrepreneurs who carpool along the I-275 construction zone between Westshore and downtown Tampa, Startup 275 is a new spin on carpooling that will earn one carpool team $10K to jumpstart an idea voted on by the public. Tampa-based Cox Media radio station 97X, the presenting sponsor, will be giving away the cash prize.
Startup 275’s goal is to increase interest in carpooling, promote safer commutes in the I-275 improvement zone, and rally the community around resident-driven big ideas created by residents who drive… together. Eligible commuters must register their carpool and travel I-275 at any point between the Howard Frankland Bridge and the Hillsborough River at least 12 days a month. Plus, be among the first 500 carpools to do this to and from work or school a minimum of 12 days each month and a $25 Visa® Gift Card is yours… not once, but every month!
There’s no better time to register your carpool or start up a new carpool. What are you waiting for? Get the low down on carpooling, stimulating cash-earning big ideas, rules, FAQs, tips and more at Startup 275.
